Release  Notes

Special Notes

*Releasing a QUALITY PROPER:
Those of you who obtained the Cyclone *A120 Clone* would realize that it
is mearly an emulation of Securom 4 protection, once you try playing it
on a puter that doesnt have Alcohol120% licensed/tried/cracked the game
would fail to startup.

The CXZiSO release however, can be played and installed on any system
regardless of the software on it.
The reasons above effectivly forfeit the Cyclone release as a CloneCD

Summary

Praetorians is the stunning new real-time strategy game from Spanish based
Pyro Studios, the developers of the multi-million selling Commandos series.
Praetorians is an epic 3D troop based strategy game centred around the
historical battles from the campaigns of Julius Caesar. Taking on the role
of a Roman General you must take on 24 missions across the deserts of Egypt,
the frozen lands of the Gauls and to the heart of the Empire itself, Italy.
The quest will be no easy task as the lands you seek to conquer are heavily
defended by thousands of troops, all with special skills and individual
strengths. You will be given the opportunity to command the forces of
not only the Romans, but also the ferocious Barbarian tribes and the
fanatical Egyptians. The road to victory depends on strategy, tactics
and learning to combine units in order to exploit your enemy's weaknesses.
Played out in jaw dropping 3D visuals, from the immense scale of
the Pyramids right down to the individual centurion, Praetorians is
stunning in its detail, scale and beauty. The game is also incredibly
intuitive allowing skilled strategy gamers and beginners alike to fully
immerse themselves in the game with absolute ease.

Features

Control three different civilisations each featuring a unique set
of troops and tactics.
The disciplined Romans will utilise organisation and flexible
formations as a means of overthrowing the enemy.
Gauls have the power of raw strength and greater flexibility of
movement on different terrains as they employ guerrilla warfare tactics.
The Egyptian priests use a combination of religious fanaticism
and advanced science to complement their range of military units.

Over 20 varied campaign missions.
Frighteningly intelligent enemies seek reinforcements, plan ambushes
and use your own weapons against you.
Employ the powerful war machines of the Roman army and make the best
use of them to protect possessions or to destroy enemy defences
and lay siege to their fortresses.

Different terrain and landscapes play a major part in battle.
The AI will understand terrain and its defensive and offensive
possibilities and it will also affect unit visibility.
Up to 8 players can do battle over LAN or Internet.
